Song: Stay by Oingo Boingo
--------------------
This is not the first time--You tried to get away
Ethan is trying to break up with me again. I don't know what it is - things will be going great, but he will hang out with Jimmy and come back and tell me he isn't sure about us anymore.
This is not a party--Where people know your name
Maybe Jimmy doesn't like me.
This is not a classroom--With teacher at the board
They are good friends and if he said jump, I'm sure Ethan would.
This is not a catshow--With prizes at the door
Let's be honest - Jimmy doesn't try very hard with me and never wants to hang out for very long on our couple dates any more.
Go--Don't you go
Won't you stay with me one more day
If we get through one more night
If we get through one more night
'Please Ethan, just one more chance. I haven't done anything wrong and you are fine with me when Jimmy is not around. Just think about this.'
'Josie, I am sure this is what I want. I don't love you and the longer I spend with you, the more I realise I never will love you.'
This is not a horse race--Where winners beat the time
'Can you not just sleep on it? If you are still sure in the morning, then I will let you go, I promise.'
'You said that last time Josie, but I keep coming back to the same conclusion.'
This is not a funeral--With mourners in a line
'Please?' I bat my lashes at him, maybe that can buy me some time.
'For the sake of both of us, I know this is the right thing to do. Don't you want to meet someone that can give you everything you need and more? Don't you want somebody that can treat you like the princess you are?'
This is not a sitcom--Where everything's alright
'But you do that for me. When we are together, I am so happy.' Ok so this is a slight lie, it isn't perfect. But I'm afraid to be alone and he is a nice guy most of the time.
This is not a prison--With terror through the night.
'No, be honest. You could find a great guy who can be your everything. I am telling you that I am not that guy and never will. You deserve better, we both do.'
This is it. I guess it's over...
Go--Don't you go
Won't you stay with me one more day
If we get through one more night
If we get through one more night
